Alex_M Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Is it possible to close all open documents with a single click without closing the app? In Photoshop you can right click on the tab of any of the open documents and then choose "close all". This closes all open documents but keeps Photoshop open for futher work. I can't seem to do this in Photo, is it possible?

Fixx Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I would just press cmd-W repeatedly until all is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_M Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Thanks, this works as a temporary workaround. :) I was hoping for a one click solution. So should I assume it's not possible at the moment? Maybe I should file a feature request if that's the case.

Uuiop Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 On a Mac Command-Option-w should do the trick. Other system shortcuts can be found here: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201236 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeTO Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 FWIW, it's a feature request and not a bug. In some apps, holding down Option will change what's shown in the menus but this is not true for every app, it's up to the developer. If you try TextEdit and open File menu, pressing Option will change the Close menu command to Close All and the Duplicate command to Save As. User experience designers have debated this approach for years. It's terrible for discovery because you have to open each menu and toggle Option to see if anything changes to discover if there are any features you don't know about. It's great for power users or those who read the manual but simply adding a separate Close All command would be more useful, although it would take up more space. It doesn't appear that Serif is using Option to modify the behaviour of any of its menu commands* which makes sense given it's a cross-platform app. * There is one exception, Option modifies the Window > Tile Window to Left of Screen command to become Move Window to Left Side of Screen. Same for the Right Side obviously.
